HC Deb 02 March 1925 vol 181 cc26-7
47. Captain GARRO-JONES

asked the Prime Minister whether he is acquainted with the views of the Dominions on the subject of air and naval disarmament, and will he communicate them to the Hon?

The PRIME MINISTER

As the hon. and gallant Member will be aware, the question of disarmament was among the subjects discussed at the Imperial Conference of 1923, and I. would refer him to the conclusion published on page 17 of the Summary of Proceedings (Cmd. 1987). I am confident that the conclusion there recorded still represents the views of the Governments of all parts of the Empire.

Captain GARRO-JONES

In view of the fact that the situation is rapidly changing, and that the Foreign Secretary is going to Geneva next Monday, will the Dominions be able to, represent their views in the event of the reported rejection of the Geneva Protocol by the Government?

The PRIME MINISTER

I think the Dominions are in pretty close touch with us on all these matters.
